Sex Offenders vs Gun owners

Md. high court throws out sex offender’s registration requirements

Pretty sad when Sex Offenders don't have to register themselves, but Gun owners will likely be required to do so. Hopefully the courts will protect us too.

It gives you an idea of in what regard MOM, Frosh etc hold us.

If they don't have to register, then they should at least disable their equipment to prevent future instances of sexual predation.

So by that ruling how can the state require us to register something that was legal and now make a punishmentafter the fact,sounds like post defacto to me.

 

[Beemer]

NOw that is absolutely absurd for them to do that and is unreal

Ex post facto. After the fact. And yes it is illegal and wrong. Not that that will stop the Domestic Enemies.

Thanks for fixing that,trying to open up the shop and keep up with Annapolis at same time.

 

[Tomcat]

It's just to protect Frosh?

Moving to Virginia would be one of the only options for me if the domestic enemies of our constitution get their way here in Maryland, they actually believe in the constitution in Virginia and have even protected private gun sales.

But gun control is for the children's safety

So it looks like Marylanders will be legally be pot smoking, child molesting, criminals that use the jails as a boarding house while they are schooled in elevated forums of illegal behavior.

While us law abiding, tax paying citizens are made to pay more taxes and have so many laws on the books that if someone really tried hard could find a saint in violation.

Annapolis, I have adopted a five year plan. In five years I will be paying state taxes to a state that does not rape their citizens.

The motivation behind enabling sex offenders is the same as for making gun owners into criminals via bad legislation:

It generates revenue for lawyers like Brian Frosh.

The article doesn't say sex offenders don't have to register themselves. It says in the case where the offense occurred before 2009 offenders can't be required to register. The issue here wasn't the constitutionality of a registry, it was the timing of his offense--not retroactively applying a punishment.

It's still BS. This society wants to protect everyone 'cept the good peeps.

How about the guy that has been in the news because he can not buy a gun because he was convicted of a misdemeanor 40 years ago, then served in Vietnam, and has not been in trouble since. I think this ruling would help him.

Yes, but current gun owners will be required to register their guns purchased before the law was enacted. We are still being treated in lower regard than these sex offenders.

If you look at Frosh's pic long enough..you'd think he was a pedo with that stash..

 

[cantonglocker]

The era of Frosh, pedo ****tards go free, gun owners go to jail. Why is he allowed to live here?

I wish people would get off this. Registries and bans that aren't retroactive aren't ex post facto, otherwise no laws would be legal at all. There's enough wrong with the bills that we don't have to make up stuff.

EX POST FACTO - The thing you did yesterday is illegal so we're going to arrest you for doing it yesterday.
NOT EX POST FACTO - The thing you did yesterday is now illegal, so if you do it again we'll arrest you then for doing it.

Note that possession is not a single action but a continuous one.

He definitely has that 'registered offender' look about him.

So you could be charged multiple times for possession of an illegal item since isn't a single action?

Also, they didn't make raping children retroactively illegal, the law was those that were already convicted had to register.
